With all the carpentry I did, the #garden really got away from me and had its own chaotic energy with the heat and all the rain. Every year I let a line of Joe Pie Weed get away and go wild. I hate that it blocks a view of the pond by the garden, but I love the pink-purple flowers. This year, thanks to the rain, it's about eight feet tall!
Here it is only a purple haze in the distance behind the dark sunflower with dew.

Local birdlife. The one that caught the fish was lucky to eat it - the other 2 tried very hard to steal it. And a not so great attempt at catching one flying - these birds fly very fast when low on the water. I took nearly 100 shots - and only one turned out half ok.

Some type of Gyromitra mushroom. Bredforsen nature reserve, Uppland, Sweden. I've used my dad's old canon fd 50mm 1.4 lens from the 70's, on my modern sony camera.

/2 (Show opening in Poutney)
If I'd had more time I might have framed up some more prints from way back, for this theme of process, but I've got one from a 4 x 5 film scan, Tri-x exposed in 1981. The show also features some straight-up landscape work with digital cameras as well as some of the #vintagelens work I've done more recently.
If they put me up in a room to talk, I've got a lot to say. Otherwise I’ll mingle with a mask.

Just popped up on my monitor (I've got a rotation to prep for my last show, spring photos that I hadn’t previously edited). This is not edited, but I just cropped it a bit vertically as I am prone to these days. Some #vintagelens

During my recent visit to Camera Outfitters in Lafayette IN, I picked up a Sears branded Tokina 300mm F5.6 for about $20. I haven't been able to pin down the manufacture date, but I'm guessing late 80s/early 90s. It seems the lens was was produced for Sears and about a crap-ton were sold.
The optical quality is so/so, but I still had fun taking these test shots. It's not as good as my 300mm Takumar, but it's a heck of a lot lighter 😁

For long as I've been paying attention to anything at all, I've never seen such a year for roadside chicory in #Vermont. Not just duration, but also extent; it's everywhere. And drat, this is a year I haven't had time to stop along the roadside with an old #vintagelens and see what I can do with it. Right now the blue chicory is with a lot of queen anne's lace, some goldenrod, some loosestrife.
This photo of mine is from the past.
